Hello, and welcome to the newer and even more improved Battling 101! This new system should be much more straightforward and efficient (at the expense of the tutoring staff's time and effort, but it's worth it because we just love you guys that much). All the instructions can be found in the Round 47 Signups topic, but I will leave this topic open for general questions anyways, since people seem to always have them.
Summary of the new system:
Instead of asking you to sign up in one of three time slots, we are now asking you to simply post what timezone you live in (in GMT), and what hours you are normally available to be tutored. We will then match you with a tutor who shares at least two hours availability with you, which we can do because we compiled a list of all our tutors' availabilities. The queue system will still be in effect, so signup threads will not be terminal, but they may be closed for short periods of time to allow for the queues to clear up.
Keep in mind the prerequisite for signing up as a tutee still stands; you must have made at least 15 posts total on at least 10 separate days before signing up. This is to provide proof that you are actually an active member of our community, and will not disappear once a tutor is assigned to you.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in this thread, and a member of the tutoring staff will answer as soon as possible. Thanks, and enjoy!
NOTE: This is NOT a signup thread, nor is it a thread to post your intent to sign up. Also, please do not ask when the signups will be open - they will be reopened when most of the currently signed up tutees complete their round. Users who ask these questions in the thread are subject to an infraction. You have been warned!
